Beyonce Knowles - Pretty Hurts lyrics

rate me

Ms. Third world, your first question what is your aspiration in life?

Oh, my aspiration in life would be to be happy

Mama said you’re a pretty girl

What’s in your head it doesn't matter

Brush your hair, fix your teeth

What you wear is all that matters

Just another stage, pageant the pain away

This time I’m gonna take the crown

Without falling down, down, down

Pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse

Perfection is a disease of a nation pretty hurts, pretty hurts

Pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse

Try to fix something but you can’t fix

What you can’t see is a soul that needs surgery

Blonder hair, flat chest, t.v says, bigger is better south beach, sugar free, vogue says thinner is better Just another stage, pageant the pain away

This time I’m gonna take the crown

Without falling down, down, down

Pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse

Perfection is a disease of a nation pretty hurts(pretty hurts)

pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse try to fix something that you can't fix what you can't see it's the soul that needs the surgery

Ain't got no doctor of pill that can take the pain away

The pain’s inside and nobody can frees you from your body

It’s the soul, it’s the soul

that needs surgery, its the soul that need surgery

Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far and you break when the fake facade leaves you in the dark you left a shattered mirror and the shards of a beautiful girl

Pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse(pretty hurts)Perfection is a disease of a nation,pretty hurts, pretty hurts

Pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worse try to fix something but you can't fix what you can't see it's the soul that needs the surgery

When you’re alone all by yourself(pretty hurts, pretty hurts)

And you’re lying in your bed (pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

Reflection stares right into you(pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

Are you happy with yourself?(pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

you stripped away the masquerade(pretty hurts, pretty hurts)

the illusion has been shed(pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

Are you happy with yourself?( pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

Are you happy with yourself?(pretty hurts,pretty hurts)

Yes
